Mnemonic techniques are learning strategies which can enhance learning and improve recall of the information learned. Research has proven that mnemonics are effective aids in learning new, abstract, and/or complex concepts. Most auditing courses are conceptual in nature. Students often experience difficulty understanding auditing concepts, which may appear abstract due to the students' lack of an adequate frame of reference necessary to analyze and understand these concepts. This difficulty can be attributed to students' lack of exposure to real-world accounting systems, source documentation, evidence accumulation, or report writing. Although coursework cannot provide the frame of reference achieved through work experience, accounting educators can provide students with techniques that ...

The present study aims at exploring thirty-five Kuwaiti learners' perceptions of the relationship between English and globalization. Interviews were used to collect data, and all possible measures were taken to enhance the credibility and dependability of the results obtained. The findings revealed that despite recognizing and appreciating the establishment and identity of English as a global language, learners' understanding of the 'essence' of this global era still appeared to be far from complete. Further, though these learners seemed to be happy and satisfied with the content of the English program, the same level of satisfaction was not expressed with respect to the delivery of the same. The positive, negative, and dispassionate perceptions were analyzed by the author with the obje...
